The -s flag selects O_SYNC mode for accessing the underlying block
device, so all writes are committed to disk before returning to the
client.

-r

The -r flag restricts the export of the device to be read-only.

-m

The -m flag takes an argument, a comma separated list of MAC addresses
permitted access to the vblade. A MAC address can be specified in upper
or lower case, with or without colons.

EXAMPLE

In this example, the root user on a host named
nai
exports a file named "3TB" to the LAN on eth0 using AoE shelf address 11
and slot address 1. The process runs in the foreground. Using
vbladed
would have resulted in the process running as a daemon in the
background.

nai:~# vblade 11 1 eth0 /data/3TB

BUGS

Users of Jumbo frames should read the README file distributed with
vblade to learn about a workaround for kernel buffering limitations.
